Backpack-bomb explosion rocks Monaco (VIDEOS)

At least three people were injured in what authorities described as an intentional “attack”

At least three people were injured after a backpack bomb exploded outside a residential building in Monaco on Monday evening. A manhunt was launched after the blast, with the suspect still at large.

The blast occurred shortly before 9pm on Rue Révérend Père Louis Frolla, a street in the principality near the French border.

A suspect was allegedly caught on CCTV leaving a backpack near the entrance to the building just as several people were entering, before fleeing on foot toward Beausoleil, a French commune bordering Monaco.

At least three people were injured, two of them seriously, while a third sustained minor injuries. Police sources cited by BFMTV and other outlets said the victims were of “Ukrainian and Russian origin.”
